20140055584 | ARIADNE WALL TAPING FOR BRONCHOSCOPIC PATH PLANNING AND GUIDANCE - A method, system and program product are provided for planning an intervention procedure in a body lumen. A CT scan of the body lumen is performed. A virtual rendering is created of the inside of the body lumen corresponding to an interventional camera image. Then a virtual tape corresponding to a planned path for the intervention procedure is projected onto a wall of the body lumen. The virtual tape is projected onto the lumen wall, which is relatively distant from the camera point on the virtual rendering, so the tape does not appear to oscillate like a central thread. Also, since the virtual tape is located on the lumen wall, it does not occlude the center of the lumen, allowing a user to better visualize the lumen during planning, during fly through, and even during an actual intervention. | 02-27-2014 |
20140072194 | MOTION COMPENSATED IMAGING - A method includes performing a motion compensated reconstruction of functional projection data using a patient-adapted motion model, which is generated based on a generic anatomical motion model and imaging data from a structural scan.

20150087927 | VOXEL TAGGING USING FIBER OPTIC SHAPE SENSING - A voxel tagging system (100) includes a sensing enabled device (104) having an optical fiber (126) configured to sense induced strain within the device (Bragg grating sensor). An interpretation module (112) is configured to receive signals from the optical fiber interacting with an internal organ, e.g. heart, and to interpret the signals to determine positions visited by the at least one optical fiber within the internal organ. A data source (152, 154) is configured to generate data associated with an event or status, e.g. respiration, ECG phase, time stamp, etc.. A storage device (116) is configured to store a history (136) of the positions visited in the internal organ and associate the positions with the data generated by the data source (152, 154). | 03-26-2015 |
